How much of that is because of the default download on python.org ?
Also % seem swapped depending on python2 vs Python3, and quite different.
Python 3
190466 win_amd64 ~ 60%
275949 win32
Python 2
3139051 win32 ~ 87%
463554 win_amd64

SELECT
COUNT(*) AS downloads,
REGEXP_EXTRACT(file.filename, r"(win32|win_amd64)\.whl") as windows_bitness,
REGEXP_EXTRACT(details.python, r"(^\d)") as python

TABLE_DATE_RANGE( [the-psf:pypi.downloads], TIMESTAMP("20170119"),
TIMESTAMP("20170126") )
WHERE
REGEXP_EXTRACT(file.filename, r"(win32|win_amd64)\.whl") <> 'null'

windows_bitness, python
ORDER BY
python DESC, downloads DESC
LIMIT
1000
